I know a lot of people still on twitter who ate firmly against fascism. I don't know why they're still on there though.

Because, as an example, some very important services communicate solely through Xitter. Emergency alerts, fire depart, governmental bodies, etc. Do I despise that? Yes. Do I ask them to move? Yes. Are they? Hell no.

Not while you are showing them you are still on there.

For a lot of marginalized people Twitter was a place to escape to and find like-minded people, I can see how it's hard to make a new place feel as homely. Most of us here left another site because we didn't agree with the leadership so it's a very biased group, "just do the same thing we did". Not everyone is in as privileged of a position though and it might be way harder for them to leave than you can imagine, especially if they're addicted to it.
